TrTranslation
披蒲編，削竹簡，彼無書，且知勉。
One copied texts onto woven rushes, another shaved bamboo strips to write on. They had no books, yet still pushed themselves to learn.
頭懸樑，錐刺股，彼不教，自勤苦。
One tied his hair to a roof beam, another jabbed his thigh with an awl. No one made them study; they drove themselves.
Draft translation; it will be revised when the lecture is filmed.
